THR DEMOCRATIC THE PARTY
or AND FOE THE PEOPLE.

George William Curtie In lecture
delivered before the Commonwealth
Club OF Boston declared that "parties |
are coming to be tried by their moral
tone and tendency and their csndi-
dates" This is largely true. But Mr..
Gu Ills ought 70 have added that
differ ence, end a marked difference,
between the Republican and the
Democratic parties Is that the latter
is for free trade and the former is for
proteotion--for the rich against the
poor, the m onop olist sguinst the mt
ohanic. But leaving that aside and
taking Mr.. Curtis's saiement 80 he In
tends Il shall be taken. The Demo-
cratic party, according to this stand
ard, Is the party most worthy OF the
peoples votes. As the New
York Herald Of Friday says,
answering the Sun'S staten emit
that Mr.. Cleveland will not be
q candidate, "The people OF this
country zee clearly that a Democratic
administration means peace and COM
mercIal prosperity. 1t is evident that
the b usiness community in every pert
OF the continent Is not only satisfied
with the present order Of things, but
will decree It's continuance. National
affairs are conducted on the lines OF a
policy at once conservative and patri.

vailing feeling Of uncertainty to inter

a conservative, painstakiug man, o
sober views, who takes his time an,
weighs all the points before Deciding
public question. But better be sloy
and sure than fast and foolish, lik
Blaine, for instance; better be plod
ding and particular than brilliant an,
bad. The country is on boom, EV
erywheIe there is progress. Eve
here in Memphis the soreh eads this
for weeks have been shaking thei
heads at the young giants who ar
making fortunes in real estate, eve
they are beginning TO move faster an
to wear a brighter look. The peopl

HIGHLAND CHILDREN.
The General Incapacity for Play Among
the Boys and Girls of Scotland.

An idiosycrasy of the children is their
pauclty OF games and general incapacity
for play. However it may be accounted
for, by social tendencies, their food or other
poverty-stricken causes, Highland boys
and girls can not only not play with the
rOllicking, robust abandon and enjoyment
of their Saxon brothers and sisters, but
can scarcely be said to play properly at all.
They run about, are happy, and even joy
ous but their repertory of sports is of the
most limited kind and most LoWland games
are unknown. The games of camanach or
shinty, putting the stone tossing the caber
and other so-called Highland sports belong
to manhood, and are confined to young
men, though at times the children do mild
ly attempt some of them. They much pre-
fer to loil about on the grass, Or play at
"tilt" or touching each other. They seem
devoid Of the Unborn suppressed steam
and turbulence of the south, which
makes boyhood and girlhood SO beauti-
fully noisy, restless and troublesome,
but healthy. have heard Lowland teach
ers grieve at this want of games, which i'm
presses them painfully, and at their own
non-success in trying to introduce some.
The games fourished, at the best, only
when fostered by themselves, and then
Cle0 OUT, killed Dy Ihe climate or the
Ossianic misty melancholy that seems to
cling, even to the children, to become
settled tone in manhood and age in average
adult Highlanders. The boys, notwith-
standing, delight in physical exercise in
mild way There is one thing they GER
tainly' can do, and they do it extremely
well-and that is, they can run and race
with each other. The clean and rapid style
of their running, done all below the
launches, without useless hitching of the
frame and shoulders, is remarkable; as
seen, for example, behind carriage on the
way to the Quiraing, in Skye. To this they
are unwisely tempted by the coppers Of
the tourist, who, as rule, consults only
his own present pleasure, without mo-
ment's consideration of the moral effects
on it's subjects.-Good Words

MARBLE AND GRANITE.
A Monument Maker Says That the Latter
Is planting the Former

Is SuIplanting the Former
The use OF marble for important mon
umental structures has been almost en-
tirely discontinued. Marble readily absorbs
moisture, and the expansion and contrac-
ton caused by our extreme climatic
changes soon brings disintegration, which
ruins the stt.ne within a few years. The
finer grades of granite are susceptible of
the most delicate carving, and the best
statuary fo- monumental purposes is now
executed fl ON this indestructible material.
find great difficulty in inducing the pat
rons to depart from the conventional forms
to which they are accustomed, and to apply
artistic taste to the monuments which they
erect to the memory of. departed friends.
The shaft, or modified Egyptian obelisk, is
usually chosen, and in some portions of
Bellefoutaine Cemetery the effect is like
that of manufacturing district with
granite smoke-stacks The obelisk was
used by Egyptian monarchs to commemor-
ate their conQuests, and in another form
among the Greeks and Romans it had a sig
nifcance which will not admit Of explana-
ton in this connection. The mortuary mon
umeEts of France and Italy are expressions
Of the best art talent of those nations. The
Campo Santo of Genoa, modern colossal
mausoleum of GO, 900 tombs, is one OF the
wonders of the world. 1t is located upon a
hillside about six miles from the city, and
is reached by ramshackle bob-tailed
street railway. Gray Eastern granite is
coming in vogue here for buildings and
various other purposes; the difference in
cost of labor and the improved mechanical
appliance of Eastern quarries quite over
balances the freight. 1t will eventually
supplant limestone and sandstone for steps,
copings and other uses, which soon cracks
and must be replaced, while granite of the
best quality becomes brighter by the action
of the elements-St Louis Globe-Dem0crGt.
